Collaboration opportunities
Connetix School Partnership Plans offer a formal way for schools to collaborate in trusts, federations, or partnerships when making decisions about purchasing and computing support. The IT approach of your partnership will be strategically planned in conjunction with Connetix and your senior leadership team to ensure alignment and maximise the return on your IT investments.
Increased school improvement
We will oversee the 3-5 year IT plan for your partnership across all school sites. We will review the plans and ensure that each school is making progress. For schools considering academy conversion, we will work closely with your school’s leadership to streamline your ICT services and ensure cost efficiency.
Cost savings
By participating in the partnership plan alongside other schools, you can take advantage of cost and time efficiencies through bulk purchasing and a consistent approach to strategic IT planning and implementation.

Flexible support options
In partnerships that include a secondary school, it is common for the primary schools in the trust to share the secondary school’s IT support resources. With Connetix Partnership Plans, each primary school will receive its own designated level of support tailored to its specific needs. This ensures a unified approach across all sites and prevents resource strain.
Given the significant variation in computing needs among individual schools, our flexible and customized service allows us to provide support that meets each school’s unique requirements. This means that schools only pay for the support they actually need.
1. All schools within your partnership will enter into a Connetix Support contract.
We will assess the specific needs of each school and propose a suitable level of support aligned with their requirements and the partnership’s IT vision.
2. Our service is adaptable and allows schools to add optional services to their support profile as needed. Our customer-centric approach ensures that we always act in the best interests of the school, without any pressure to make additional purchases. Our primary goal is to provide top-notch ICT service while minimising costs.
3. Connetix management will collaborate with your senior leadership team to plan an integrated approach to IT. This may involve detailed procurement plans, staff training programs, or complete system overhauls. We are equipped to work with schools and academies at all stages of their IT development.
